Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- Vegetable oil for frying
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
- 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 12 mini slider buns
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion
- 1/2 cup pickles (optional)
- Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. In a large bowl, whisk together buttermilk, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add chicken pieces, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
- In a medium bowl, mix mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, lime juice, and garlic powder. Taste and adjust if needed. Set aside.
- In a shallow dish, mix flour and panko breadcrumbs. Remove chicken from marinade, coat it in the flour mixture, and shake off the excess. Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C). Fry chicken in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
- Lightly toast the slider buns. Spread Bang Bang sauce on the bottom buns. Place fried chicken on top, add shredded lettuce, red onion, and pickles if using. Garnish with cilantro, then add the top bun.
- Arrange sliders on a platter and serve with extra Bang Bang sauce on the side.
Notes
To keep sliders from getting soggy, add sauce right before serving. You can marinate the chicken the night before for better flavor.
